for the AFFS the Kurger became a lifesaving vehicle for beseiged AFFS units on New Avalon. with most Command, Control and Communications facilities under DCMS occupation, the need for real time information was paramount to the underground resistance forces. being only scouts however, Krugers are not known for thier ability to fight well, even if it is only to enable escape. using refurbished Packrat and Skulker chassis a solution was found that dramatically increased the survivability of the scouting vehicles, without putting more precious equipment in more harms way then needed.
collectively named the Lawrence Combat Cars, after a First World War British hero, these vehicles are designed along similar lines to the Krugar including matching the vehicles speed. using mothballed Particle projection cannons, the Lawrence can fight at extended range compared to it's smaller cousins.
given the undergrounds structure and constant need for replacement parts the PPC is by no means the standard armament. Light Autocannons, Snub Nosed PPCs, Plasma Weapons, Rockets and even massed machine gun arrays have been fielded based on the needs and availability of equipment, even the armor plating has varied from hardened plate salvaged from Rokurokubis all they way down to civilian automotive fiberglass stuffed with university textbooks in hopes of blocking small arms fire. therefore what is shown below is merely a "baseline" example
